Re: [PHOTO] Re: NYCTA M/M’s overalls.

Those are what we used to call pinstripe overalls. The OP described them as “thinly striped” but whatever they were called, that is the type of stripe that was considered to be the official TA M/M’s uniform. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any pinstripe overalls anywhere on line. The broader hickory stripe overalls as once worn by mainline RR engineers are in plentiful supply and that is what the CTA M/M wear. I haven’t been able to find any info on pinstripe overalls from any websites and that includes Google which usually has everything. Although I haven't attempted to contact Lee or Carhartt (who made overalls under the brand name “Headlight”) I suspect that nobody working for the major workwear companies would have any idea what I would be talking about if I asked.
